Chen Ying sat for a moment, and suddenly raised his eyebrows.

There is warmth around him, and it is his body that comes through the wind.

Fang just said it happily, and only then did he realize that the seats of the two of them seemed to be closer to each other.

"This matter needs to be kept secret, and I ask Miss Chen to be quiet." Seeing that she found out, Pei Shu coughed, simply lifted the chair openly, and moved two steps forward.

Chen Ying was stunned for a moment, then laughed again.

Since he said so, then she had no choice but to believe it.

She picked up the tea cup to moisten her lips, and then raised her chin slightly, as if recalling: "I just said ......"

"Little Brother Qiao works for King Kang." Pei Shu pointed out the main idea in one bite.

At this point, there is no need to be obscure.

Chen Ying glanced at him with a smile: "The little marquis listened really carefully. ”

"That's it." Pei Shu grinned, and a mouthful of white teeth seemed to glow: "Miss Chen speaks, this official ...... Next...... Listen carefully under yourself. ”

Naturally, I changed my name.

Chen Ying didn't care, and took a sip of tea: "Then I'll go on." After Qiao's younger brother sneaked to Shandong, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his uncle also came to Dengzhou to thoroughly investigate the corruption case, and won a complete victory in this battle. King Kang's remnants suffered heavy losses, the hidden village was discovered, and a large amount of silver was intercepted. It is conceivable that they will take revenge under their anger, and the exiles will fall into their eyes. ”

Chen Ying looked at the tea in the cup, and there was also a little light blue in the pupils: "The camp was built by His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the hero who cracked the ink corruption case." Since Brother Qiao has joined the gang, he is afraid that he will also vote for his name, so he is mixing with another party and waiting for an opportunity to make trouble. I speculate that it is likely that on the night they started, they happened to bump into Fang Xiu'e and kill someone. ”

She frowned and clenched the teacup tightly, as if she wanted to feel the rest of the warmth: "Fang Xiu'e killed her mother-in-law and husband for some reason, and was met by Brother Qiao and them on the spot. So, these people repeated their old tricks, just like holding Qiao's younger brother and threatening Qiao Xiurong, and then holding Fang Xiu'e's youngest daughter and coercing her to obey orders. ”

Pei Shu didn't feel hot at this time, but the cold was terrifying.

He understood what she said.

It is precisely because I understand that I am still tired of it, and I trimmed my eyebrows, and suddenly burst out with a face full of anger: "A group of villains! ”

Chen Ying also felt the same way, and sighed: "For the sake of her daughter's life, Fang Xiu'e had to work with them to burn down the camp of exiles, and in order to hide Fang Xiu'e's disappearance, I speculate that Junior Brother Qiao killed other people again, replacing Fang Xiu'e's mother and daughter, making up for the number of dead, so as not to make people suspicious." ”

Pei Shu sat with his back up, and shook the hand resting on his knee.

According to what Chen Ying said, Chen Shao was obviously framed.

It's just that Emperor Yuan Jia may not be willing to listen.

"You maid...... Is Ziqi's statement credible? Pei Shu asked.

Chen Ying nodded: "When I arrived at the scene on the night of the crime, I had spoken to Ziqi, and she said at that time that she heard someone talking in a daze, but she couldn't remember the specific content. Now that he remembered the past, he told me the whole thing. ”

She turned her head to look out the window, with a determined expression: "The two knives on Fang Xiu'e's body are not fatal injuries, when Ziqi was knocked out by the murderer, Fang Xiu'e may not have completely lost her breath, so she can say this." ”

Her brows furrowed slightly: "Little Hou Ye should remember that dog cave and those few children's clothes left, right?" ”

"I see." Pei Shu immediately realized, and said with his chin bowed: "This person is also meticulous, kill the two first, then knock Ziqi unconscious, and then make the next road along the dog hole as a disguise, and finally return to the scene of the crime, move Ziqi to the east chamber, and then create the false appearance of Fang Xiu'e crawling to the courtyard gate." ”

"Yes." Chen Ying said: "Fang Xiu'e is a weak woman, although the two stabs stabbed by the murderer are not fatal, they are enough to make her bleed to death, so the murderer no longer cares about her, but is busy arranging other things." ”

At this point, she frowned again: "Speaking of which, the disguise technique on Junior Brother Qiao's face is also very strange. He lived in the West Guest House for a long time, and it was not that he did not come into contact with people, it was the height of summer, the weather was hot, and it was easy for people to sweat on their faces, if his disguise was so easy to fade, he was afraid that he would have been seen a long time ago, but Zheng Shou and others did not find it at all, so it can be seen that this disguise technique should still be very effective. ”

When she said this, Pei Shu was also puzzled: "That's true." I'm also half a Jianghu person, and although the disguise technique is not so miraculous, I have rarely heard of this fading thing. ”

Chen Ying's eyebrows moved slightly, and her smile was strange: "If my expectations are correct, after killing Junior Brother Qiao, the murderer should still have moved his hands and feet on his face, so be sure to let him really appear in front of people and confirm my father's crime of rebellion and murder." ”

She raised her eyes to look at Pei Shu, and her eyes turned cold: "After the murderer killed, I am afraid that the time left in the West Wing is limited, after all, he has too many things to arrange, and it will take a lot of time to just throw his clothes into the lotus canal." ”

When defending Ziqi in Dali Temple, Chen Ying did not pick out these doubts in detail, because it had nothing to do with the crime of washing Ziqi, and there was no corroboration, it was purely her personal speculation, and she could not speak in vain during the court defense.

These words can only be elaborated in the face of Pei Shu.

Pei Shu looked at his feet intently.

The flat brick floor, the light can be seen, reminds him of the gold bricks in the imperial study.

What Emperor Yuan Jia wants is not speculation, but the truth, even if Chen Ying says it well, it is not as touching as it really is.

Let's find out Fang Xiu'e's identity first.

"I'll send someone to Fang Xiu'e's hometown to check." He was resolute.

The people in Fang Xiu'e's village are almost dead, and if you want to investigate, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time.

However, this is what must be done, and it is even more necessary for Chen Ying.

"There have been disasters in that place for many years, and many people have died, but there will always be those who have survived, and as soon as the results come out, I will report them." Speaking of the decision, Pei Shu's heart suddenly brightened, and his eyebrows and eyes became sparse.

Chen Ying raised her head silently, her pupils slightly blank.

Pei Shu went to investigate so actively, naturally for official business, but in the end, she owed him a favor.

All the things in the past, suddenly surging into her heart at this time, she was speechless for a while, and she pondered for a long time before she whispered: "Why King Kang's remnants are eyeing my father, the reason is still unknown. There are so few clues that I can't deduce it out of thin air. ”

Together, these words aroused Pei Shu's heart.

This is indeed very puzzling, and Emperor Yuanjia refused to let go, which is why he was not willing to let go.

If Chen Shao had nothing to do with King Kang's Yu Party, why did they kill Junior Brother Qiao under his name? Could it be that his disappearance is fake, but in fact, he is serving the rest of King Kang's party, just like Junior Brother Qiao?

Then, for some reason, he suddenly returned to Beijing, maybe he still had some secrets in his hands, so he attracted King Kang and the rest of the party to frame him?

Emperor Yuan Jia's suspicion is also based on this, even if Fang Xiu'e's identity is ascertained, this suspicion will not be weakened.
